Hi! I'm so glad you chose to stop by!
I've been obsessed with all things beauty-related since my mom took me to my first MAC makeup class when I was a tween. I remember being in awe of the artists' teaching styles, their talent, creativity, and unique abilities.
Years later I landed my first job at MAC, where my beauty journey began. In addition to working at the beauty counter, I was cultivating my second love for skincare, by working in a few spas behind the desk and understanding how to create a good skincare routine. I have been diving deeper into esthetics over the past few years and I am delighted to be opening my first studio downtown this February 2024.
After servicing clients in the treatment room, you can find me scouring cookbooks for fun-looking recipes, researching what new restaurant to try, and most importantly, snuggling up with my cats.
I can't wait to share stories, talk about the latest beauty trends, and reveal the most beautiful side of you and your skin, it's going to be a great time.
Have a gorgeous day.
Vanessa
